Native Instruments (NI) on Tuesday announced Audio 2 DJ, a new USB audio interface for DJ's. It's coming in September for $119.

Designed as a mobile audio interface for digital DJs, Audio 2 DJ connects to a Mac or PC using USB 2.0. It also features two 1/4-inch output channels that you can use to connect to an external mixer, or as a master out and headphone monitor.
